My Inner Rebirth

My Inner Rebirth Plot:

Lin Xiaoman, an overworked office worker, collapses from years of suppressing her true self to please others. When she wakes, she’s shocked to find her 17-year-old self—wild, unapologetic, the girl who once stood up to bullies and chased her favorite band across the city—“living” inside her mind. The teen forces Xiaoman to fight back against workplace exploitation, ditch meaningless blind dates, and pick up her dusty guitar again. But reality hits hard: her project is failing, colleagues turn on her, and her mom weeps, “You’ve changed.” As the “false safety” of people-pleasing clashes with the “real pain” of authenticity, Xiaoman realizes: “inner rebirth” isn’t magic—it’s daring to pick up the “self” she’s hidden for a decade. And that 17-year-old girl? She’s never been a hallucination—she’s the unextinguished fire in her soul.
